The Manager can create, edit, assign projects and sections to other members of the project team, respond to questions, and complete review of any section in projects in which they are team members. Managers are limited to only projects they are involved with and cannot see projects they are not a member of.

Non-Credentialed Users
Guests: A Guest can only answer the questions and sections that they have been assigned. Any assignments a Guest receives will come through email and not from inside the instance. They can not access your content library or log into the Responsive app at all. Anyone, even a third party, can collaborate as a guest.
Note: Users only receive email notifications after they activate their account. Unverified users do appear in assignee drop-down lists but will only receive future notifications after they activate their account.
